Someone wearing a ghost mask broke into the Baisheng Chamber of Commerce at night.
He killed four Connate Experts, broke through the Hundred Crossbow Formation, and stole a large amount of money.
This news quickly spread throughout the entire Yangzhou City.
For a moment, everyone was talking about it in their leisure time, taverns, and restaurants.
"Who is this person? How did he break through the defenses of the Baisheng Chamber of Commerce? "
"Unbelievable. He's a god!"
Some people were shocked by Li Wuyou's actions.
"God my ass. He's just a robber!"
"The Baisheng Chamber of Commerce has lost so much money. They'll definitely donate less money to the private schools and the poor this year."
"That's right. Even the merchants will be affected."
"That bastard deserves to die!"
However, most people were still angry at the robber's actions.
That was because the Baisheng Chamber of Commerce had done a lot of good things in Yangzhou.
They donated money to build private schools.
They built bridges and roads.
They even supported many merchants with low-interest loans.
Half of the prosperity of Yangzhou City was due to their efforts.
Now, they had suffered such a heavy blow.
Many people had died, and they had lost a lot of money.
Given the close relationship between the Baisheng Chamber of Commerce and Yangzhou's economy, it would not be long before Yangzhou City fell into recession.
What a despicable move.
At the same time, the news reached Li Wuyou's ears.
At that moment, he was standing on his desk, slowly practicing his calligraphy.
The brush moved, and the force of the words penetrated the back of the paper.
It was as smooth as flowing water.
Lu Xiaoyao did not like to drink tea. He liked to write.
He used it to calm his mind.
Therefore, Li Wuyou had to change some of his habits.
Fortunately, he had learned calligraphy in the past. Writing was a piece of cake for him.
His handwriting was different, but it was enough to fool Liu Jinshui and the others.
"That person is very powerful. I think he's a level one Grandmaster. The Baisheng Chamber of Commerce has suffered a great loss this time."
Liu Jinshui lowered his head as he stood opposite Li Wuyou.
He explained in a low voice.
He did not even dare to look at Li Wuyou's face.
"A level one Grandmaster robber?"
Li Wuyou's hand that was holding the brush stopped. His pair of slender eyebrows furrowed as he spoke in a low voice.
"That's rare."
After a pause, he asked again.
"Did the Parkwell Chamber of Commerce suffer a great loss?"
"It's said that the losses were huge."
Liu Jinshui sighed and shook his head helplessly.
"Furthermore, the economic relationship between Yangzhou City and the Parkwell Chamber of Commerce is very close. Yangzhou City will also be affected …"
"Also, the Parkprosperity Chamber of Commerce is in a mess now. Their defenses are almost destroyed. It's very easy for other people to target them."
"As for the experts in Chang 'an, it is said that it will take a while for them to arrive."
"In short, it's a big problem."
Pa!
As soon as Liu Jinshui's voice fell, Li Wuyou threw the brush on the table.
The black ink gradually dyed the Xuan paper.
He said in a cold voice.
"I've heard a little about the Parkprosperity Chamber of Commerce. They've done a lot of good deeds over the years and are quite famous among the people."
"They're in such a big trouble, and we just happen to be here. It's not appropriate for us to just stand by and watch."
"Come with me to the Parkprosperity Merchant Guild!"
"This …"
Liu Jinshui hesitated for a moment.
However, he soon understood.
Lu Xiaoyao was now fighting for the position of the successor of the Hana School.
Therefore, he needed to earn a lot of reputation among the people in Jiangnan to help him fight for the position.
The incident in Daliu Town was also for the sake of reputation.
Then, the incident with the Parkprosperity Chamber of Commerce was not strange.
Moreover, the effect would definitely be better.
"Yes!"
Liu Jinshui nodded repeatedly.
Soon, the two of them left the inn and rushed to the Parkprosperity Chamber of Commerce in a carriage.
After a night of fighting.
At this moment, the Parkprosperity Chamber of Commerce was no longer as majestic as it was before.
The door was broken.
The walls had collapsed.
Even the three-story attic that symbolized the Chamber of Commerce's reputation had been smashed by Li Wuyou last night.
Now, it was in shambles.
In the courtyard of the Chamber of Commerce, it was even more tragic.
Dozens of crossbows had fallen.
Wood shavings, steel, and gravel were scattered all over the ground.
There were also many corpses of the guards.
The blood had dried up and turned black.
However, the strong smell of blood still lingered in the air, which made people afraid.
The Parkprosperity Chamber of Commerce was very important in Yangzhou.
Therefore, the prefectural magistrate dispatched a large number of guards to surround the entire Chamber of Commerce on the inside and the outside.
The soldiers were in charge, and the crossbowmen were ready to fight.
However, the atmosphere was still a little depressing.
Everyone knew.
These soldiers, these ordinary crossbowmen, could only fend off ordinary bandits.
At this time, even an ordinary perfected Connate master could casually take away some banknotes.
"Hurry up!"
"Hurry up, all of you!"
"Don't dawdle!"
In the courtyard, Sun Bailu's exasperated and hoarse voice could be heard.
He was leading the people in the Chamber of Commerce to frantically clean up the banknotes scattered on the ground, as well as some real gold and silver.
These were all poured out after Li Wuyou broke the secret room where the gold and silver were stored.
They had to be collected as soon as possible.
Otherwise, it would easily cause more chaos.
The Parkprosperity Chamber of Commerce could not afford it now.
"President Sun, the people from the Hana School are here."
Just when Sun Bailu was in a terrible fix, a somewhat submissive voice came from the door.
"The Hana School?"
"What are they doing here?"
Sun Bailu was in a desperate situation, so he had no time and energy to care about the sects in Jianghu. He waved his hand casually and said impatiently.
"Tell them I don't have time, send them away …"
"President Sun, is this how you treat your guests?"
However, before Sun Bailu's voice died away, a gentle and irresistible voice sounded.
Sun Bailu's face stiffened, and he looked up.
Li Wuyou had already passed through the encirclement of countless soldiers and appeared in front of him.
The signature green robe of the Hana School.
The white jade sword at his waist.
His black hair was half tied and half scattered behind his head.
His face was as modest as jade.
In his eyes, there was a convincing and admirable light.
"You are … Young Master Xiaoyao?!!"
Sun Bailu still had some knowledge. He only took a glance at this person and reacted.
This was the famous Young Master Xiaoyao in Jiangnan!
Lu Xiaoyao!
"This …"
Sun Bailu knew this person's reputation, and he also knew that the latter had a respected status in the Hana School.
Thinking that he had just spoken like that, he was a little nervous for a moment.
He was at a loss.
"Don't be nervous, President Sun."
Li Wuyou had a smile on his face, like a warm spring breeze. He glanced at the scene that was ruined by him, and then said,
"Anyone who encounters such trouble will be anxious. I won't be offended by your rudeness just now."
"To tell you the truth, I am here with the disciples of the Hana School to help your Baisheng Chamber of Commerce."
"Before the masters of Chang 'an come, we will help you guard."
"I promise that no one will come and make trouble!"
"I will also help you find the evil robber!"
Li Wuyou's voice was gentle.
His face was righteous.
After Sun Bailu heard it, he stiffened.
Then, he suddenly came to his senses.
Help?
That's great!
With Young Master Xiaoyao and the disciples of the Hana School guarding, there would be no more trouble.
Perhaps, they could really find the robber!
"Thank you so much!"
In the next moment, Sun Bailu rushed to Li Wuyou, almost crying, and said gratefully.
"You are really … chivalrous!"
"Bright wind and bright moon!"
"I am the model of Jiangnan's chivalry …"
